Il ruolo del Terzo Settore nella tutela dell'ambiente e nella transizione energetica. Esperienze europee a confronto

Abstract

The reform of Title V of the Constitution and the introduction of the principle of subsidiarity have
consolidated the role of the Third sector in the Italian legal system. The Third sector, placing itself on the
level of horizontal subsidiarity, acquires a political relevance in civil society as an opportunity for
participation. Even in the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, the Third sector has an important role.
Therefore, it is interesting to analyze what are the most recent Third sector perspectives, especially for
environment protection and energy. In this regard, the participation of the Third sector in the foundation
of energy communities deserves a deepening, not only in the Italian legal system but in other European
legal systems too.
